Did the system get the wrong world?

I've tried all the higher-level skills too, but none of them have been successful.

The menu bar displays skill proficiency:

[Back Hop] 1/10000, [Mighty Slash] 1/10000, [Flying Blade] 1/10000, [Slit] 1/10000, [Thrust] 1/10000, [Rising Uppercut] 1/10000, [Dagger Attack] 2/10000, [Theft] 6/10000

These points add up to 14 points, enough for a lottery draw. Effort: 14.

A single draw is definitely enough. If I practiced with a dagger, both [Slit] and [Flying Blade] would trigger [Dagger Attack]. If I trained those first, I'd get double the points.

But for attack skills, I definitely need to master one. If I couldn't solve the dagger problem before, I would have definitely chosen to practice [Mighty Slash] first. After all, warrior skills can also be practiced with a wooden stick.

Given my current small body, my basic stats must be very low. My Five Dimensions or Four Dimensions values are probably also very low. In such a hardcore world, the benefits of warrior skills would surely not be high in a short period.

[Slit] is a close-combat skill for thieves. My small body can launch surprise attacks, but if it's a frontal encounter, it's basically impossible for my current body to get close to the target. In the end, I can only choose [Flying Blade] as my main skill for now.

As long as the properties of the blades I throw are sufficient, sharp blades can cut open a person's neck, causing fatal damage.

[Back Hop], as the only evasion skill, must be practiced. Moreover, the main fatigue from Back Hop is in the waist and legs, while the fatigue from throwing [Flying Blade] is mainly in the arms and shoulders.

Passive skills can enhance the attack damage of this type of weapon. The [Dagger Attack] skill is an additional benefit, along with [Theft], a skill that can be cultivated long-term. I can invest and practice it long-term, or quickly gain proficiency. The only limitation is magic power. Right now, 10 practices per day is the limit.

"Back Hop, Theft, Flying Blade, and Dagger Attack." Mel Carlo temporarily stopped practicing. He had already figured out some of the System's general workings. As long as he repeated an unlearned skill ten times, he could acquire that skill. The important thing was to perform the action.

But these simple skills can be acquired easily now, but it might not be so easy in the future. Some skills in games have auxiliary systems, no matter how dazzling they are, their release is just a moment.

But now, with all actions turned into hardcore mode, the difficulty of this thing has increased linearly.

"Master Anke, can you teach me some other skills? Do you know any other skills?" Mel Carlo walked over to the scar-faced man. At least for now, this man posed no threat.

"Besides Flying Blade, I also know Stealth and..." Anke said, then seemed to hesitate, his eyes shifting slightly. "However, those skills might be too difficult for you. At your current age, you probably can't even learn Stealth properly."

"What if I were an Apostle, could I try?" Mel Carlo brought up the word proactively.

This made Anke swallow. He had always had this guess, but he couldn't confirm it, because Apostles are those who unleash power beyond human limits when they are close to death.

If he wanted to confirm this, he needed to put the kid in front of him on the verge of death. But if this kid wasn't an Apostle, he might really die. If he was an Apostle, it would be himself who died.

"Yes, besides Stealth, I also know Assassin's Breathing Technique. But after I teach you, you absolutely must not spread it. This is a skill that can only be learned within the Assassin's Guild... otherwise, you'll be hunted by those assassins."

"I understand, Master Anke, please teach me."

Anke didn't refuse. He stood up and began to teach patiently. [Stealth] was a Level 5 Thief skill in the game. Mel Carlo wasn't a genius, and he couldn't master this skill by bypassing the level requirement.

However, [Assassin's Breathing Technique] could be tried. This was also an extra skill with no level restriction in the game, requiring a specific NPC to learn. In this world, it was likely the Assassin's Guild or some assassin associations that mastered this skill.

The only apparent use of [Assassin's Breathing Technique] in the game was to increase the duration of Invisibility, but [Invisibility] was a Level 20 Thief skill.

However, from Anke's explanation, it seemed a bit different.

"Assassin's Breathing Technique can make you less likely to be detected when you're sneaking."

"Okay, I understand." Mel Carlo nodded. After all, games are just games, and some differences are normal.

Everything in the game exists for entertainment, but this fantasy world has many more possibilities.

Hint: Successfully learned [Assassin's Breathing Technique]. Proficiency: 1/10000.

"It seems I've learned it. Thank you, Master Anke. You're not as terrifying as you look."

"You're not as kind as you look either, kid!" Anke became even more convinced of his idea. This kid really might be an Apostle, and he wouldn't be in mortal danger as long as the kid didn't lose control.

After a simple attempt, Mel Carlo didn't plan to continue, as he had already practiced enough for the day. His body was already in a state of fatigue.

"Do you want to learn Flying Blade too, kid?"

"I can try." Mel Carlo agreed. He wanted to verify if training with others would increase proficiency faster.

They went to the target. Holding daggers, they were to throw them, or they could use other throwing objects.

Proficiency +1, Effort +1...

"Kid, you need to hold your hand steadier if you want to hit the bullseye. Your technique is still very clumsy!"

"Okay." Mel Carlo adjusted his technique and posture according to Anke's guidance.

Although the proficiency increase was the same, with each throw only bringing 1 point of Effort, his hit rate significantly improved after learning the throwing method for Flying Blade. At least he wasn't missing the target anymore.

After finishing practice, Mel Carlo walked out of the gang's courtyard.

[Flying Blade] Proficiency: 20/10000, Effort: 34.

With 34 points, he could draw three times. There would be 4 points left over. Mel Carlo wondered whether to do a 10-pull or a single draw to see the prizes.

After a brief consideration, he decided to do a single draw first. Even if the System didn't talk to him, at least the lottery function was still there. It just took a bit more time to figure out how to use this System.

After clicking the single draw, there was no roulette animation; it was directly settled.

Hint: Obtained item [Bag of Milk Candy]. Current Effort: 24.

"What the heck? Is this B System in the wrong world? Shouldn't it be an upgrade ticket, skill points, or some other fantasy item? This isn't a rebirth in the 90s."

Mel Carlo was a bit dumbfounded. The reward had nothing to do with this world. It was completely irrelevant. Looking at the rabbit on the milk candy wrapper, he was a bit stunned.

He couldn't judge yet. When he saved up enough for ten draws, doing a 10-pull should clarify things.
